24、四个选项中，选出最佳选项。AThe young man arrived on the Massachusetts beach early carrying a radio, a shovel (铁锹), and a strange set of tools: a brick layers trowel, a palette knife, spatulas, spoons, and a spray bottle.He walked down near the water the tide (潮水) was out and switched on the radio to listen to so

25、ft rock. Then he shoveled wet sand into a pile nearly four feet high and as many feet across. Then he created a square shape.After that, he set to work with palette knife, spatulas, and spoons. He shaped a splendid tower, topped walls, fashioned beautiful bay windows, and carved (雕刻) out a big front

26、 gate.The man knew his sand. He smoothly finished some surfaces and carved artistic designs on others. As the shapes began to dry, he gently kept them slightly wet with water from the spray bottle, in case they might break in the wind.All this took hours. People gathered. At last he stood back, obvi

27、ously satisfied with a castle worthy of the Austrian countryside or Disneyland.Then he gathered his tools and radio and moved them up to drier sand. He had known for a while what many in the crowd still ignored: the tide was coming in. Not only had he practiced his art with confidence and style, he

28、also had done so against a powerful, irresistible (不可抵抗的) deadline.As the crowd looked on, water came at the base of the castle. In minutes it was surrounded. Then the rising flood began to eat into the base, walls fell, the tower fell, and finally the gate fell. More minutes passed, and small waves

29、 erased bay windows soon no more than a small part was left.Many in the crowd looked terribly sad; some voiced fear and discouragement. But the man remained calm. He had, after all, had a wonderful day, making beauty out of nothing, and watching it return to nothing as time and tide moved on.21In th

30、is passage, why did the young man start early in the day?AHe needed the sun to help dry the sand.BIt gave plenty of time for the crowd to gather.CHe knew the tide was out on this particular morning.DIt was easier to begin his work with only a few people around.解析：选C细节理解题。根据第二段句子“. the tide (潮水) was

31、out and switched on the radio . Then he shoveled wet sand into .”可知，年轻人等到潮水退去才开始听着轻音乐干起活来。所以答案选C，年轻人早来的原因是他知道这天早上潮水会退去。22In this passage, what does the incoming tide signal?AIt is time to begin working.BIt is the end of a days work.CIt is the busiest time of the day.DIt is time for lookerson to leav

32、e.解析：选B细节理解题。根据倒数第三段句子“He had known for a while . the tide was coming in . he also had done so against a powerful, irresistible (不可抵抗的) deadline.”可知，虽然众人不知道但年轻人很清楚潮水正在袭来，所以他不仅用他的艺术作品体现了自己的自信与风格，而且战胜了潮水袭来之前的有限时间。所以答案选B，年轻人创作完沙雕，结束了一天的工作，潮水也正在袭来。23How did the lookerson react when the tide began to com

33、e in?AThey were disappointed to see the art ruined.BThey tried their best to save the sand castle.CThey were nervous about their own belongings.DThey helped the artist finish the castle.解析：选A细节理解题。根据文章最后一段开头句子“Many in the crowd looked terribly sad .”可知，旁观者在看到潮水吞噬沙雕的时候都很伤心，失望。所以答案选A。24We can tell tha

34、t the young mans reward for his work is _.Apayment for his work Bpersonal satisfactionCpopularity as an artistD.attention from the crowd解析：选B细节理解题。根据最后一段的句子“But the man remained calm . had a wonderful day, making beauty out of nothing, and watching it return to nothing .”可知，年轻人很镇静，很满足，因为他见证了沙雕从无到有，从

35、有到无的整个过程。所以他从自己的作品中得到的回报就是自我满足感。因此答案选B。BI think people everywhere dream about having lots of money. I know I do. I would like to earn large amounts of money. You can win a large amount of money in the United States through lotteries. People pay money for tickets with numbers. If your combination of

36、numbers is chosen, you will win a huge amount of money often in the millions.A few years ago, my friend Al won the lottery. It changed his life. He was not “born with a silver spoon in his mouth”. Instead, my friend was always short of money. And the money he did earn was chicken feed.Sometimes Al e

37、ven had to accept handouts (施舍物) from his friends. But do not get me wrong. My friend was always very careful with the money he spent. In fact, he was often a cheapskate. He did not like to spend money. The worst times were when he had no single penny left.One day, Al scraped together a few dollars

38、for a lottery ticket. He thought he would never gain lots of money unexpectedly. But his combination of numbers was chosen and he won the lottery. Al was so excited. The first thing he did was buy a costly new car one thing that he normally would not buy. Then he started spending money on unnecessar

39、y things. It was like he had “money to burn”When we got together for a meal at a restaurant, Al paid every time. He would always tell me the money made him feel like a millionaire. But, Al spent too much money. Soon he was “down and out” again. He had spent his “bottom dollar” his very last amount.

40、He did not even save any of the money.I admit I do feel sorry for my friend. He had enough money to “live like a king”. Instead, he was back to “living on a shoestring” a very low budget. Some might say he was wise about small things, but not about important things.25What does the author desire to d

41、o like others?ATo combine the numbers perfectly.BTo make a huge fortune.CTo be chosen for selling lotteries.DTo get in touch with millionaires.解析：选B细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的“I know I do. I would like to earn large amounts of money.”可知，作者也像其他人一样，想挣一大笔钱。故选B。26Before Al won the lottery _.Ahe spent too much money

42、 buying chickenBhe didnt value the money he had earnedChe had trouble feeding his familyDhe hated to give a hand to his friends解析：选C细节理解题。根据文章第二段可知，Al总是缺钱，他赚的钱少得可怜。第三段又表明朋友经常帮助他。故选C。27What does the fourth paragraph imply?AAl always had good luck in life.BAl valued his money above his life.CAl had lo

43、ved the expensive car probably.DAl pretended to have more money.解析：选C推理判断题。第四段中的“The first thing he did was buy a costly new car”表明，Al有钱后的第一件事就是买了一辆豪车，这辆车可能是他以前喜欢但买不起的东西。故选C。28When a person is “down and out”， _.Ahe is as poor as a church mouseBhe lives a life like other peopleChe has set aside all h

44、is moneyDhe is looking forward to big success解析：选A细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段的“He had spent his bottom dollar his very last amount.”可知，他把最后一笔钱也花掉了，他又过起了穷困潦倒的生活。故选A。CGlobal warming could make humans shorter, warn scientists who claim to have found evidence that it caused the worlds first horses to shrink nearly

45、50 million years ago.In fact, a team from the universities of Florida and Nebraska says it has found a link between the Earth heating up and the size of mammals horses, in this case, the last time the world heated up.The scientists used fossils to follow the evolution of horses from their earliest a

46、ppearance 56 million years ago.As temperatures went up, their size went down, and vice versa (反之亦然); at one point they were as small as a house cat, said Dr Jonathan Bloch, curator (馆长) of the Florida Museum of Natural History, was quoted by the Daily Mail as saying.The scientists say that the curre

47、nt warming could have the same effect on mammals and could even make humans smaller.“Horses started out small, about the size of a small dog like a miniature schnauzer (雪纳瑞犬). Whats surprising is that after they first appeared, they then became even smaller and then dramatically increased in size, a

48、nd that exactly corresponds to the global warming event, followed by cooling. It had been known that mammals were small during that time and that it was warm, but we hadnt understood that temperature specifically was driving the evolution of body size，” Dr Bloch said in the Science journal.语篇解读：科学家研

49、究发现，地球温度的变化影响着哺乳动物身体的大小，继而发出警告，全球变暖可能会使人类变矮。29How did the scientists find out the evolution of horses?ABy using fossils.BBy following the horses.CBy heating up.DBy studying cats.解析：选A细节理解题。根据文章第三段可知，科学家用化石来追溯马从5 600万年前诞生至今的进化历程。30What does the underlined word “miniature” in the last paragraph probab

50、ly mean?ASmall.BLarge.CNatural. DGentle.解析：选A词义猜测题。根据单词“miniature”中的前缀“mini(小的)”可判断出答案为A。另外，根据画线词miniature所在句的语境“马最初的个头很小，和一只小狗的个头差不多，大约也就像一只迷你型雪纳瑞犬那么大”可知miniature词义同small。31What can we learn from what Dr Jonathan Bloch said?AAs temperatures went down, the size of horses went down.BHorses first appe

51、ared small, then smaller and then became big.CHorses becoming smaller was connected with the global cooling.DHorses will be as small as a house cat in the end.解析：选B细节理解题。根据文章最后一段可知，布洛赫博士在科学杂志中写道：“马最初的个头很小，和一只小狗的个头差不多，大约也就像一只迷你型雪纳瑞犬那么大。令人惊讶的是，在马诞生后过了一段时间，它们的个头变得更小，之后个头又显著变大。”故选项B正确。32What would be th

52、e best title for the passage?AGlobal warming could make humans shorterBScientists from Florida and NebraskaCHorses used to be like catsDDr Jonathan Bloch解析：选A标题归纳题。科学家们研究发现地球温度的变化影响着哺乳动物体型的大小，继而科学家发出警告，全球变暖可能会使人类变矮。故选项A作为标题最佳。D“Ive never met a human worth cloning，” says cloning expert Mark Westhusin

53、 from the cramped confines of his lab at Texas A&M University. “Its a stupid endeavor.” Thats an interesting choice of adjective, coming from a man who has spent millions of dollars trying to clone a 13yearold dog named Missy. So far, he and his team have not succeeded, though they have cloned two c

54、alves and expect to clone a cat soon. They just might succeed in cloning Missy later this year or perhaps not for another five years. It seems the reproductive system of mans best friend is one of the mysteries of modern science.Westhusins experience with cloning animals leaves him vexed by all this

55、 talk of human cloning. In three years of work on the Missyplicity project, using hundreds upon hundreds of canine eggs, the A&M team has produced only a dozen or so embryos carrying Missys DNA. None have survived the transfer to a surrogate mother. The wastage of eggs and the many spontaneously abo

56、rted fetuses may be acceptable when youre dealing with cats or bulls, he argues, but not with humans. “Cloning is incredibly inefficient, and also dangerous，” he says.Even so, dog cloning is a commercial opportunity, with a nice research payoff. Ever since Dolly the sheep was cloned in 2019, Westhus

57、ins phone at A&M College of Veterinary Medicine has been ringing busily. Cost is no obstacle for customers like Missys mysterious owner, who wishes to remain unknown to protect his privacy. Hes plopped down $3.7 million so far to fund the research because he wants a twin to carry on Missys fine qual

58、ities after she dies. But he knows her clone may not have her temperament. In a statement of purpose, Missys owner and the A&M team say they are “both looking forward to studying the ways that her clone differs from Missy.”The fate of the dog samples will depend on Westhusins work. He knows that eve

59、n if he gets a dog viably pregnant, the offspring, should they survive, will face the problems shown at birth by other cloned animals: abnormalities like immature lungs and heart and weight problems. “Why would you ever want to clone humans，” Westhusin asks, “when were not even close to getting it w

60、orked out in animals yet？” 33Which of the following is TRUE about animal cloning?AFew private cloning companies could afford it.BFew people have realized its significance.CAn exact copy of a cat or bull can be made.DIt is becoming a prosperous industry.解析：选D理解细节题。第三段首句提到，克隆狗是能带来丰厚科研报酬的商机。下文无论是提到动物医学

61、院频繁接到的电话，还是举出一掷千金想克隆爱犬的富人的例子都是为了说明首句的观点。因此D项正确。34From the passage we can infer that _.AMr. Westhusin is going to clone a dog soonBscientists are pessimistic about human cloningChuman reproductive system has not been understoodDrich people are only interested in cloning animals解析：选B推理判断题。文章一开始就引用专家威斯

62、苏森的话，指出克隆人是愚蠢的尝试。第二段最后两句提到，克隆实验的低效性和危险性在克隆人中不可接受。文章末尾再次引用该专家的话，指出现在动物的研究还没成功，没有必要想到克隆人。由此可见以威斯苏森为代表的科学家对克隆人是持悲观态度的。B项为正确项。35Mr. Westhusin seems to believe that cloning _.Ais stupid and should be abandonedBhas been close to successCshould be taken cautiouslyDis now in a dilemma解析：选C观点态度题。注意题干问的是“克隆”，

63、它包括了克隆人和克隆动物两个方面。第二段末句中，威斯苏森先生强调了克隆的低效性和危险性；文末他又指出，克隆动物的研究还没有接近成功时，更别提克隆人。因此，C项概括了他对于克隆的整体态度。第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Public Speaking TrainingGet a coach_36_， so get help.

Some say homework is necessary since only practice _61_ (make) perfect, while others disagree. In my opinion, daily homework is necessary for students. However, this might be misleading that on

Actually, only proper amount of homework in proper form is _63_ (accept); some homework may not only fail to help the students, but on _64_ contrary bore them so much _65_ they may lose their interest in studying. “Proper” homework, in my opini

81、on, should vary in its forms, _66_ might be some extensive reading, a paper, or even just a game, as well as other ordinary exercise.
